Cod Farming Method Abstract of the Disclosure The present invention as disclosed comprises a method of aquaculture of codfish. First, live codfish are captured by a cod trap such as that which has been traditionally used by Newfoundland fishermen. The aquaculture method of the present invention comprises the following steps: placing the live codfish captured by a cod trap as indicated above in temporary confinement means filled with new water, such as a sea water tank installed on a seagoing vessel; controlling the temperature of said sea water so that said temperature is maintained within the range from -3.4°C to 8°C; and preferably, from -1.5° to 4°C; regulating dissolved oxygen in the water to maintain suitable living conditions for the codfish during confinement of said codfish in the temporary confinement means; controlling light and controlling fish density in said temporary confinement means to maintain a suitable optimum level for each of these parameters; transporting the captured live codfish to an area provided with a permanent confinement means such as a floating net pen placed in the open sea; placing said live codfish from the temporary confinement means in said permanent confinement means provided for rearing and harvesting of said codfish: supplying the codfish placed in the permanent confinement means with nutrient elements necessary for bringing said codfish into marketable conditions; and harvesting the codfish which have grown to a desirable size.
